Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm, cell cortex. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Lipid droplet. Internalized from the cell membrane in response to catecholamine-induced activation of PKA; detected on intracellular membranes and colocalizes with lipid droplets (By similarity). Colocalizes with PLIN1 in adipocytes, probably on lipid droplets (PubMed:27832861).
